The Dritz Ezy-Hem Gauge is a sturdy metal pressing tool with markings and shapes for a multitude of uses. Use the markings on the Ezy-Hem to measure and press up straight or curved hems. The Ezy-Hem prevents a ridge from being pressed into the garment by the edge of the hem. In this same manner, you can also press under pocket facings as well as waistbands. Use the curved corners of the Dritz Ezy-Hem Gauge to effortlessly press curved pocket corners and to press under edges of patches and appliques.
